This award-winning project combines high-rise luxury condominiums and street-level retail. Eleek was brought in early in the planning and was asked to design an interior light fixture to fit with the Charles Rennie Macintosh-inspired feel of the building. Working closely with the project's design team, Eleek was gradually entrusted with more and more of the custom decorative accent work for this building. In the end, Eleek created eleven unique designs for The Elizabeth, totaling 463 pieces.
"Going from early concept sketch idea, to mock-up, down to final delivery and installation, Eleek was there all along the way. Interaction with Eleek improved our early design ideas and helped make the project truly something special. Developing custom or unique pieces for any project certainly has become much more reachable since we discovered this unique resource!"
